Default BBC Combo Question

I want to build a 572 CI BBC built for at least 20psi of boost..
My question is what bore and stroke size would be better ?

Block : Dart Big M
Crank : Callies Magnum
Rods : Oliver
Pistons : JE
Rings : Hellfire
Compression : 8.5


What kind of heads with this combo would you guys recommend? how big should i go? Im looking to be in the 1300 HP range.
Im leaning toward a blowthru carb setup.. Does any one recommend EFI over the carb? If so.. why and is it worth the money it will cost to use efi?

572" have a set bore & stroke. Not much you can do there, without using a weird combination. Carbs are easier to tune.
People love each, so there is good about both. U didn't say if you want a roots or centrifugal.

you will never get 20 psi from a f1c on a 572,at 20 psi boost you should be at 1600hp or so

I would go with AFR heads, and an ATI ProCharger F2 would be a good blower for what you are looking to do. Check this link out. http://www.procharger.com/chevy_nova.shtml Bob

I am looking at do something just like this. I was hoping to make in the 1500-1700 area. I am going to sell all my ls1 stuff chassis and all. I just havent found any prices on what a motor will cost to support that kind of power.
